On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in FASB Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition.” ASU No. 2014-09 requires entities to recognize
revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. We use the percentage-of-completion accounting method to account for our fixed-price or unit rate contracts, computed by the efforts-expended method which measures the percentage of labor hours incurred to date as compared to estimated total labor hours for each contract. We understand that this method will still be allowed under the update; however, there are additional criteria to consider for the requirements to recognize revenue under the percentage-of-completion method. We are in process of reviewing our contracts to ensure that we will continue to be able to apply our revenue recognition policies and we are evaluating whether implementation of this update will have a material effect to our results of operations. We intend to use the modified retrospective model in adopting this standard, which will require a cumulative catch up adjustment, if any, on January 1, 2018.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, “Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments,” which eliminates the requirement that an acquirer in a business combination account for measurement-period adjustments retrospectively. Instead, an acquirer will recognize a measurement-period adjustment during the period in which it determines the amount of the adjustment. ASU 2015-16 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2017, which did not have an impact on our financial position, results of operations and related disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases,” which requires lessees to record most leases on their balance sheets but recognize expenses in a manner similar to current guidance. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The guidance is required to be applied using a modified retrospective approach. We are currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2016-02 will have on our financial position, results of operations and related disclosures; however, we expect to record our lease obligations on our balance sheet.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” which amends several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification within the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We adopted the requirements of ASU 2016-09 effective January 1, 2017. The provisions of ASU No. 2016-09 that are applicable to the Company and affect the Company’s consolidated financial statements include the following:

This ASU requires the recognition of the excess tax benefit or tax deficiency resulting from the difference between the deduction for tax purposes and the compensation cost recognized for financial reporting purposes created when common stock vests as an income tax benefit or expense in the Company’s statement of operations. Under previous GAAP, this difference was required to be recognized in additional paid-in capital. The expense or benefit required to be recognized is calculated separately as a discrete item each reporting period and not as part of the Company’s projected annual effective tax rate. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we recorded tax expense of $4,000 and $214,000, respectively (approximate $0.01 loss per share) related to the adoption of this ASU. We have adopted these provisions on a prospective basis and our prior period presentation has not changed. Future effects to the Company’s income tax expense (benefit) as a result of the adoption of this ASU will depend on the timing, number of shares and the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on the dates of vesting.

This ASU No. 2016-09 also clarifies that cash paid by the Company to taxing authorities in order to satisfy employee income tax withholding obligations from vesting shares should be classified as a financing activity in the Company’s statement of cash flows. We have reported payments of $884,000 within financing activities within our consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017, as a result of adoption of this ASU. We have adopted these provisions retrospectively and reclassified $146,000 from cash used in operating activities to cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016, to conform to the current period presentation.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which changes the way companies evaluate credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, loans and other instruments, entities will be required to use a new forward-looking “expected loss” model to evaluate impairment, potentially resulting in earlier recognition of allowances for losses. The new standard also requires enhanced disclosures, including the requirement to disclose the information used to track credit quality by year of origination for most financing receivables. ASU 2016-13 will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for all entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. We have not elected to early adopt this guidance. The guidance must be applied using a cumulative-effect transition method. We are currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2016-13 will have on our financial position, results of operations and related disclosures.
